Sure 😉
They are twin brothers and good friends. They are similar, except for the color of their eyes – Olaf’s are grey and Hrafn’s are green.
Olaf was always sure he would be the next king, as he was born first. When Hrafn was chosen, he was upset at first, but then he happily accepted to rule together with Hrafn. But the fact that he always believed he would be king is deeply rooted in his behavior. He wants to be seen as fair leader and to show off a little bit.
Hrafn is more discrete. One of the reasons for it is that he has a secret – he shares a special connection with a raven bird. because of this connection he is wiser, too – he can share thoughts and emotions with his raven. Hrafn is good with a sword, and as a new king, he has inherited his father’s sword. As for Olaf, he is very skilled with spears. But they are both young, so they dress and play just like regular boys.
I hope this helps 😉

In reply to Kateryna. No problem at all. Can you share a bit more about their personalities as I find some reference photos. I read the book, but I have a terrible memory. It's the reason I buy books, I can read them over and over again.

If I can pick anything, I’d love you to sketch the characters of my book – the Viking twin brothers Olaf and Hrafn (10-year olds, blond, good-looking 😉 ) If you don’t mind, of course 😉 Otherwise, I can choose something else

In reply to Kateryna. Congrats Kateryna! He was a leader of a special group of warriors called Kephallenians -- I did not know that before I did some research. What would you like me to sketch?

In reply to Mili_Fay. I believe some other ones were Amphitrton, Autolycus, Castor, Eurytus, and I know there’s a few more but forgot their names.
